Wednesday, February 11th

BST 19:30 Aston Villa vs Brighton 

Getting the New Year underway with a 3-1 victory against Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa found themselves at the heart of a sensational Premier League title battle and they had shattered a string of long-standing records.

However, despite cruising their way to a Europa League Round of 16 ticket and widely regarded as a genuine European contender in 2026, Emery’s side are enduring a recent domestic wobble.

Eventually forced to settle for a 1-1 stalemate at home against Bournemouth over the weekend, Villa have remarkably claimed just a sole win from any of their previous five Premier League appearances.

Nevertheless, currently still sat in bronze medal position and leading the chase to claim another iconic Champions League adventure this year, Villa will be excited by their most recent showdown against Wednesday’s opponents.

Landing an action-packed 4-3 win when they travelled to the Amex for their reverse Premier League battle on December 3rd, Villa will be confident of getting their top-four charge back on track.

While many in Brighton’s camp might have opened up the 2025/26 campaign with their sights set on mounting their own respective European charge, the Seagulls have come under some serious recent scrutiny.

Putting in another downbeat performance over the weekend as they slumped to a 1-0 loss at home against bitter rivals Crystal Palace, Fabian Hurzeler’s side are essentially sat in Premier League limbo.

In fact, including a 2-1 defeat away at Fulham last month, the former St. Pauli boss has seen his struggling squad register just a single victory from any of their last 12 consecutive top-flight showdowns – a run that stems all the way back to the end of November.

It should also be highlighted, Brighton have recorded just a sole Premier League win away from the Amex since back on September 27th.

The Seagulls have also recorded just one-point from any of their previous four Premier League trips to Villa Park.

Betting Tip: Aston Villa win @ 19/20

19:45 Rochdale vs Forest Green 

While Rochdale might have suffered play-off heartbreak last season, Jimmy McNulty’s men are almost universally regarded as the standout promotion contender this time around.

Opening the midweek fixtures holding a two point buffer at the top of the National League table, the Lancashire-based outfit will be looking to make a real statement here.

Last seen over the weekend securing a gritty 1-0 victory at home against Carlisle, Rochdale are in the midst of a major purple patch. Getting the New Year underway with a 2-0 win away at Gateshead, Wednesday’s hosts have now won all of their previous six consecutive National League appearances.

Storming their way to an empathic 4-1 romp against Boreham Wood, McNulty’s side will also be excited by their extended success on home soil.

Along with winning their last four straight matchups at the Spotland Stadium by an aggregate score of 9-2, the Blues have also registered 36 points from their 14 matchups in front of their own supporters this season.

Although Forest Green might travel to Lancashire on Wednesday night still leading it out in the play-off chase, Robbie Savage’s men are desperately searching for some essential stability.

Making an immediate return to winning ways over the weekend as they slumped to a 2-1 loss away at York City, the Rovers have now lost three of their previous four appearances across all competitions.

Watching their FA Trophy adventure come to a thumping end on January 31st as they slumped to a woeful 3-0 drumming at home against Wealdstone, Forest Green have also won just a pair of their last nine showdowns against National League opposition – a run that stems back to December 20th.

Showing some worrying defensive issues, Savage’s side look set for another stern examination in midweek.

Hit with a 1-0 defeat when they welcomed Rochdale to the New Lawn for their reverse National League battle on October 4th, we are expecting a similar outcome on Wednesday night.

Betting Tip: Rochdale win @ 19/20

20:00 Swindon Town vs Newport County 

While Swindon might have found themselves at the heart of a worrying blip last month, the Robins have certainly come roaring back in an eye-catching fashion.

Rightfully receiving a string of plaudits from across England’s fourth-tier, Ian Holloway’s side are currently sat in bronze medal position and have their sights set on securing a shock League One return in 2026.

Last seen over the weekend putting in a dominant display as they stormed their way to a routine 3-0 victory at home against Oldham, the one-time QPR boss has seen his squad win all of their previous three consecutive League Two showdowns by an aggregate score of 7-1.

Signing off January with a 3-1 win against Barrow, Swindon will also be excited by their extended dominance on home soil.

Including a 2-0 victory against Gillingham on New Year’s Day, Wednesday’s hosts have won four of their last five matchups at the County Ground.

Although Newport might have clung to their League Two status last season, Christian Fuchs’ men have an almighty battle on their hands this time around.

Getting Wednesday’s trip to the City Ground underway sat in the drop zone and widely regarded as a standout relegation candidate in 2026, the Exiles are once again pencilled in as a landslide underdog in midweek.

Signing off January with a 3-0 loss at the hands of Bristol Rovers, Wednesday’s guests have continued to show some glaring issues this season.

Including a 4-1 drumming at home against Accrington Stanley, Newport have also gained an unwanted reputation for their struggles away from Rodney Parade. In fact, Fuchs’ downbeat squad have lost all of their previous four straight showdowns on the road by an aggregate score of 12-4.

Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out at opposite ends of the League Two standings, we are backing a home victory on Wednesday night.
